If you look closely at the back sides of the rings you’ll find the Firestone RI info and rim widths molded into the metal. The RI rims (Dayton style open center) and RH rims (fixed center disc) of equal widths shared the same side rings, all marked RI. Stu

Well, I was able to get 5 out of the 6 I needed put together. The rest of the rims & rings I had were just too far gone and too dangerous to use.
My rims were mostly Budd C-34800. Now I just have to hunt one rim and Ring down to finish, and my relic can roll on it's own shoes.. I am glad I was able to get the ones I was from Karl in MA.
